SB 925 prohibits the Oregon Transportation Commission from establishing tolls on Interstate 205 between the Washington state border and the I-5 interchange. It directly stops the commission from implementing tolls on this specific highway corridor, affecting drivers who use I-205 and removing a previously permitted authority. The bill amends existing law (ORS 383.150) by deleting language that allowed tolls on I-205, effectively banning tolling there. This is a concrete policy change that prevents future toll collection on this route without altering other tolling provisions for highways like I-5.
